Didn't realize having a blog was so much work! I still haven't told my family about the blog and I'm not sure yet how to instruct them about it. I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't even know what a blog was! This may turn out to be a Mike's blog but hopefully, we can use it as a log of the de Castro family spread out in the Philippines and the US. Anyway, I'll post a picture of the converted Victorian I live in in NJ as a start.

It's 8: 46 pm on a Tueday and my friend Alan has just helped me set up this blog. We are on parallel laptops after eating some Thai chicken that I taught him how to cook. Hopefully this will be another way for the de castro clan to connect. An experiment in familial connection.
